Monday Mission 3.13

Welcome back to Monday everyone! My birthday was great and I truly appreciate all the warm wishes and gifts.

This week's MM is a nice change from last week. Very upbeat and positive (mostly). Sorry about last week's, but that is how the Mission works, sometime you choose to accept it, sometimes you don't.

A few things:

• First off, Blogroll Me if you use Blogrolling.com.
• Second, you can get daily email updates of all my posts if you use Bloglet.com. Just fill in the form on the front page sidebar.
• Third, I have updated the XML file. So be sure to use that if you are using a "Feed Reader." And if you are, which one do you like best?
• Fourth, I signed up for Blogshares.com since it seems to be all the rage. Buy some stock, greed is good!

So get ready, cause this sh!t's about to get heavy....
 

PromoGuy's Monday Mission 3.13

1. How old will you be on your next birthday?

2. One of the presents I was given for my birthday was a "George Foreman Grill." I've always joked about them, so it was kind of a joke gift. But it turns out, it is a really neat little grill. Then it hit me, this is a gadget, except it is for the kitchen. Then I thought about it and realized that "gadgets" aren't just techno-toys, gadgets are everywhere. What is your favorite gadget?

3. Tell me about someone that you lost touch with several years ago. Would you like to get back in touch with them again? What caused the separation? Has enough time passed? Would you still get along?

4. I've not met many online friends in real-life (I.R.L.), but I've always assumed we'd get along great if we met. But then again, if we would since my online personality  (brash, outgoing) seems so different from how I see my RL offline version (introverted). Is there a difference between your online personality and your real-life version? Or are you pretty much the same person either way?

5. Being the quiet type, I have often felt like the online world has given me a greater chance to meet people I'd never meet IRL. In fact, I would bet that I would have never met any of you IRL if we had been in the same bookstore or coffee shop. So in that sense, I think the Internet has helped inter-personal communication for many people. Can you think of any ways that the Internet hinders person-to-person communication? What could we do to change things?

6. Last night, about 1AM I was overcome with this amazing sense of inner peace. I hadn't prayed, or done anything spiritual, yet, I felt like life was truly good and things could only get better. It seemed like I was given a mental "nudge" as if to say, "You're doing great kid, stay with it and everything will keep getting better." When was the last time you felt truly happy, or had that sense of perfect inner-peace? What does it take to get that feeling back when you need it?

7. There are times when I just want to tell someone off. I don't usually, since I have to work with them. Sometimes it is a family member and that would be even worse on down the road if I cut loose. If you could just verbally let loose on someone and be able to say anything you want, without repercussions, who would you say it to and what would you say?

BONUS: Are we alive or just a dying planet?
